Men, writer-director Alex Garland’s 2022 folk-horror film, divided audiences — but most viewers agreed that the film’s ending was incredibly shocking. Men’s twist ending, which reveals that Rory Kinnear’s characters, from the Green Man to Geoffrey the caretaker, are one and the same. Not only that, but each of Kinnear’s toxic character’s births the other, trapping Jessie Buckley’s Harper in a terrifying, seemingly inescapable cycle of births and rebirths.

While this makes his rumored retirement plans surprising, it also makes the future of a potential franchise he started seem more uncertain than ever.
